Hello friends
How are you all doing??
Its been a little manic here with it being the end of the school term, lots of performances to attend etc but only got 3 more get ups till I get 6 glorious weeks off..........I'm so looking forward to it
Ok as it is a little mental here and time is against me, I'm going to enter these makes into two challenges...... so the first one is SSSSC which this week is Embossing, hop here to the Lovely Linda's DT blog with all the deets on how to take part.....you could even be in with a chance to win $50!
The other challenge is over at another lovely Linda's blog, Grungy monday 16this week it is all about the Grunge board!
Hop here to see all the talented folk taking part and don't forget to hop over to Tim's blog for oodles of inspiration!
What have I made???
Well I decided to make some more Grungeboard bracelet cuffs....think I'm a little addicted to making these!
They were all embossed with various Textured fades, then coloured using Distress stains
This one has an old clock face from my own stash, with a corner to make a little roof, with the addition of some staples too.
I used some eyelets along with some idea-ology and used a distress tool on the edges.
I think I like this one the best.......I added a buckle from my stash over the hitch fasteners to hold it on your wrist
All three were sealed with Claudine Helmuths matt medium ,Ooops..... I just noticed the word disk on the green one has been naughty and turned while having its picture taken....how rude!! LOL!
Hope you like them, as always feel free to leave a comment they always mean so much, would love to know what you think
Will be back very soon with another make
Big hugs

ReplyDeleteGreat cuffs, love them all and the embossing is very effective, love the watch face with the roof to make a house too, very creative. Great pieces. Tracy Evans x
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love it when something fidgets on a piccy... These are wonderful bracelets or wrist cuffs (?) - depends on the gender I think. Loving the textures, leathery look and rich colours, my fave is the brown - great detail coming through! Fabulous work Kaz. Three days to go (hubby on his last legs...) have sent you a quick email...
